Local Innovation Systems Project

The MIT-based Local Innovation Systems Project gathers a remarkable research team in trying to address issues of economic prosperity of local communities in the rapidly changing global economy, focusing on innovation as promoter of productivity growth and competitive advantage. 23 locations in the United States, Finland, Japan, the United Kingdom, Norway, Ireland, India, Taiwan and Israel have been used as case studies. The Working Papers sections provide strong theoretical and empirical research on innovation promotion policy.

Yours is the best blog I've encountered on urban innovation and economy. I write the Cents of Place blog at https://donjek.typepad.com and may well create a permanent link to your site. Thanks for the great content.
